Icon81 Is the HMRC tax video the most boring on YouTube?

Her Majesty’s Revenue and Customs have released a YouTube video that some people are hailing as the most boring ever put on the web. We take a look at some of the competition.

I looked through some of the other videos on the list. I would have started a thread on this earlier, but I fell asleep and have only just woken up. There are some really boring videos linked to.

Hey, I often will sit and watch my washing machine do its thing. It's fun to watch your clothes tumble around, darn it!

I've not looked at the others yet, but although it won't win an BAFTA, it's an infomercial - declare and pay up and we'll be lenient. Keep quiet, we will catch you and send you to jail sonny. It might work, it might not, but where's the harm in it? I'm not sure that message should be accompanied with any sort of entertainment content. It is short and apropos.
